Swelling in moving disquiet. the aurora of colors commence to change, The softness increases day by day. Until after a while no splendid colors remain. And like a wary bird of prey, On the brink of the hunt. For as suddenly as he sees his quarry, He dives like a missile. o sooner there, then gone. -Kim Raichl 13 �It wa a windy day, but the Glads kept the parade going trong.

The losses of three top notch players in early sea on, incon istency, and lady luck blocked the way for immediate Gladiator success. Finesse and Widefield's running game cau ed fits for the Glads usually taller opponents. Furda's crew gained respect for this type of play.

"This year's goal for the paper was to improve the over all quality of the paper", stated Russell Krause, editor. The addition of in-depth studies conducted by the staff was one ofmany contributions to this year's 1974-75 newspaper. When asked about the change from short paper to long paper, Krause replied, "We felt it would add to the paper's appearance, and gives us more room." The reason behind the switch from our graphic arts to the Security Advertiser for the printing of the paper was to reheve some of the pressure on Graphtc Arts. Because of much critism caused by last year's name Acta Diurna, the staff changed the name to Oracle, to create an easier understanding. In a final statement, Krause said, "I still see a need for more changes. I think the progress made by the staff is a compliment to their hard work and new ideas."

Forensics is. • • Forensics is not only a competitive high school activity, it is a foundation upon which to build a future. Being able to think quickly and to ay what is to be said with confidence and style are valuable assets attained through Forensics. Long hours of practice and research, flling systems and indexing, and mountains of rework fill the leisure time of the team member. It requires determination. The rewards are confidence and pride in self and an awareness of current social, economic, and political problems. Forensics provides for the development of the speaking voice and the formulation, organization, and development of ideas. This year the team attended numerous tournaments. The season began at Mitchell and the team steadily improved on other tournament dates. Widefield hosted two tournaments this year. The Invitational on ovember 4 and the All City Tournament on February 15. The year terminated with the state tournament in Boulder. Forensics encompasses many areas; among these are interpretation of humor, poetry, drama, original oratory, extemporaneous speaking, and cross examination and Lincoln-Douglas debate. Constructive critici rn is the tool u ed by coach Joe eph Dionisio to Instill self confidence in team members and to achieve perfection.

A stone is many years becoming a ruby; take care that you do not destroy it in an instant against another stone. 199 ����ADVERTISING DIVISION We did Rate It started in the summer, With just a few in sight. We thought it was a bummer, Till we saw the light. We had to fill these ads, To make our book look great. So we started in on Dads, And with some, we did rate. Thus, in the following pages, You will soon desire. The fruit of our rages, A total of our fire. - Kim Ra1chl 203 �BA. K OF I 0 • 'T AI..
